As if our useless government doesn’t have anything BETTER to do.

Should be a state’s issue. The federal government just can’t keep itself from trying to micromanage everything. That’s the real problem....

My wife and I went to eat at a Chinese buffet a few weeks ago. As we were entering, a woman was arguing with the manager. She wanted to bring her do dog in with her; it was a small dog, but she did not look disabled in any way. After a lot of noise on her part, the manager finally agreed to seat her. My wife found that unacceptable and insisted we leave (which, we of course did).

It’s a shame we have so many selfish entitled people who bring pets into resteraunts that it would come to this. The celebrities started this crap of course.

I know I’m probably going to get flamed for this, but I agree somewhat that ANY animal should be prohibited from entering establishments where food is sold and/or eaten.

I understand the need of the animal’s owner, but there are also concerns with both sanitiation in regards to food, as well as potential allergy issues with the other patrons and customers.

While service animals should continue to be used in other locations, I would think it would be best for everyone if coping techniques were practiced in these locations if possible.

Again, this is my opinion, and no, I’m not a professional.

Funny, ...I saw her go in with it, haggle with the owner, but I never saw her exit the Chinese Food restaurant with her dog.

Handicap parking stickers are issued through the DMV why can’t dogs for the disabled be issued by the same entity? Provide the paperwork and documentation and your Service Animal is duly licensed, and the owners DI is also coded. Both licensees are carried by the owner and both licenses have the same unique code matching the two up, one to the other.

I was staying at a Hampton Inn last month, and to my great surprise was awakened at 5 am by a dog in a nearby room’s constant barking

Society is regressing

You should always avoid Chinese restaurants that offer to “wok your dog” as a service to their patrons.

Did they turn it in to Young Chow Fried Rice?

Seeing that photo of Hitlery and Huma Weiner wearing sunglasses indoors, like the criminal elitists they are, makes me thankful again they lost the election.

The purpose of Hitlery's stop there at Chipotle was a photo op showing her as an "ordinary" person, yet she wears sunglasses as if to conceal her identity.

You’re not going to be flamed by me. I’m not all that old and it used to be standard that animals weren’t brought into these establishments. It’s a cleanliness issue and no, the fact that a particular persons bathes Fido every day doesn’t make any difference to me. Your dog is not your child.... leave it home

One of the few things about Europe I thought was better than the US is people take their dogs everywhere. The train, grocery, restaurant. Never caused any problem I could see.
